The Nintendo Switch 2 is an upcoming Nintendo console that serves as the successor to the Nintendo Switch. It was first announced on January 16, 2025, and is set to be released on June 5th.
Games
The launch title will be Mario Kart World, the sixteenth entry in the Mario Kart series. There will also be a new Donkey Kong game titled Donkey Kong Bananza, a 3D game starring Donkey Kong that will release on July 17, 2025, and a sequel to Kirby Air Ride titled Kirby Air Riders that has an unknown release date. The Nintendo Switch 2 is also getting a lot of third-party games at launch like Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition, Split Fiction, Hogwarts Legacy and Star Wars Outlaws.[1] The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of The Kingdom are Nintendo Switch games remastered for the Switch 2 and coming at launch. FromSoftware is releasing a new exlusive for the Switch called The DuskBloods scheduled for a 2026 release.
Hardware
Just like the original switch, the Nintendo Switch 2 is a hybrid console, which can be used as both a handheld console or a home console by placing it into a dock connected to a television or monitor. The unit is still similar in form factor to the Nintendo Switch consisting of the main body that includes the screen and primary hardware, and two Joy-Con 2 devices that can be attached to the main unit's sides in handheld mode, or can communicate wirelessly to the main unit when docked. [2] Along with the existing ports from the Nintendo Switch's design, which includes a USB-C port on the bottom serving as its power source and connector for a dock, a headphone jack, and a cartridge slot, the Nintendo Switch 2 includes a second USB-C port on the top of the unit. Unlike the original switch, the switch comes with a C-button below the home button and a microphone on the top edge.[3] Pressing the C-buttons opens up a menu which enables voice communication and sharing onscreen content with other users. The Switch 2 includes 256 GB of internal storage, an increase from the 32 GB of the original Switch.[4]
